The Lumineers
Tuesday 3rd September at Pryzm, 8:00pm
Just before the release of their new album, The Lumineers play an acoustic set at Pryzm.
The new album III is audacious: every note, every syllable, and every moment of silence in between is emotionally charged. In tone, the album is darker than anything the band have ever done. Mixing raw emotional themes with their ear-catching melodies, expressive vocals and their trademark acoustic sound, III moves masterly in artistic directions not yet travelled by the band.
Albums and tickets will be posted separately, the album's release date is 13th September.
CD/ticket is £15 post-paid, and other formats and combos will be available.
Pryzm is all ages for this show - under 14s must be accompanied by a ticket-holding adult (18+). Over 18s should bring PHOTO ID (driving license / passport).

MY LIFE STORY
Friday 6th September at Banquet Records, 6:00pm
The day their new album is released, My Life Story visits Kingston to play in the shop.
With a string of top 40 hit singles and albums in the 1990s, epic pop pioneers, My Life Story received huge critical acclaim with their brand of grand, orchestral pop, leading many artists of the Britpop era to feature them on their records. Heading up this clever, witty and beautiful wall of sound is the charismatic frontman Jake Shillingford, famous for his sharp tongue and even sharper suits. Vocalist and songwriter Shillingford has cowritten and coproduced the highly anticipated album World Citizen alongside guitarist Nick Evans creating a new and distinctly rockier sound.
World Citizen was composed during the recent chaotic global news landscape where reality as we thought we knew it is constantly being reinvented... In dark times we find safety in what we know and understand. It’s about returning to the sense of the self, the freedom and simplicity of nature and the clarity and honesty of love and union. Ultimately, I’d say the theme of the album is searching for truth in a world full of lies. Even if that’s a personal truth.”
In-store Grade B.
Priority will be given to anyone who orders a copy of World Citizen from us.
All albums + tickets are for collection from the shop on the day of the in-store, please bring your order number with you.

Sam Fender
Tuesday 10th September at Pryzm, 8:00pm
To celebrate the release of his hugely anticipated debut full length album titled Hypersonic Missiles, Sam Fender visits Kingston to play at Pryzm.
There’s a loose thread that has run through all of Sam’s songs to date and that’s in the focus of his lyrics. Observational, questioning and socially engaged, Sam has an innate gift for simplifying matters of the newsworthy and topical. “I don’t have answers only questions” he clarifies on the eyebrow-raising multi-vocal layered new track White Privilege, but there’s a canny simplicity here that seems to be touching and speaking plainly to people in their hundreds of thousands. Those words reflect conversations occurring right across the globe, amongst friends in cafes, pubs, and out on the terraces. Frustrations. Misunderstandings. Despair.
To combat touts, customers will be required to give their name when purchasing tickets and will be required to produce photo ID matching that name for entry to the gig. Tickets are not transferable.
The name of the lead booker will be on all tickets. Where more than one ticket has been purchased, all guests in the party must enter the venue together. To gain entry to the show, the lead booker must bring the tickets along with valid photo ID matching the name on the tickets.
Pryzm is all ages for this show - under 14s must be accompanied by a ticket-holding adult (18+). Over 18s should bring PHOTO ID (driving license / passport).
Times TBC, but we expect doors at 8pm, Sam Fender on stage at 9pm and a curfew of 10pm.
CD/ticket is £17 post-paid, and other formats and combos will be available.

Saturday 31st August at The Fighting Cocks, 18+
12 tickets on the doors! The day after the release of their new album, Black Futures play at The Fighting Cocks. Never Not Nothing will mark the debut full length album from the stomping and loud groove-fused rockers.The band were last in Kingston supporting Frank Carter at New Slang and they blew us away, we're delighted to see them return for their own headline show at Kingston's punkiest venue, The Fighting Cocks. A collection of apocalyptic anthems emanating from a source of caustic melody and infectious distortion,Never Not Nothingis a further insight to their vision of a crumbling world, inhabited by a cast of random reprobates and shot through with a sardonic British humour: a devastating gathering of monumental, maximalist and magnificent music, laser-honed to conquer what’s left of the world. Support will be coming from Soeur. Times are planned as: 8:00pm doors 8:30pm Soeur 9:30pm BLACK FUTURES The Fighting Cocks is an 18+ venue. Please bring photo ID.

“We write from an honest place, and that’s something we always want to stay true to,” says frontman, Josh Raven. “It has to resonate with us for it be relatable to our fans.
